Left hand res?I have been up around that area dozens of times per year. I aint sure I have run into a left hand reservoir?? I know that if you hike up past Loch Lomond it taks you to a couple mre lakes with brookies in them. And if you go over to The Rock House they have up there, around the bend and down in the valley, there is a lake called Ice Lake. I have heard there is cutthroats down there. Its down from the rock house, but higher than Loch Lomond. I go ATVing all over that area, but now that I have a jeep, there are alot of jeep trails I can not wait to try out! Lets Go!!!
Where is rock house? I haven't seen a cut throat or cut bow in quite a few years. The ones above Loch Lomond are Reynolds, Ohman and Stewart lakes. I have never been up there but I would love to go up there this year.
I can't wait to get up there
As soon as the second gate is open
Yeah, you can only really get up there two, maybe three months out of the year.. Last year it was after july fourth and still had to go around some snow fields.. The rock house is east of Loch Lomond and it looks down on the lake. You are supposed to bring a rock up with you and place it on the structure. In the past couple years it's grown alot!! So bring a rock next time you come up!!
Other cool things up there, is the bristlecone pine forest. Guess the trees up there are over 5 thousand yrs old and supposidly the oldest living organisms on earth.
They look pretty cool. There are soo many trails back there... When I was younger I used to hike up there with my snowboard and shovel!!! Also, you can drive over near the backside of St. Marys Glacier if you know the way.
Sorry if I am talkin too much, I like that place. There should be a run planned up there for sure..
